I have been doing atkins for the past 7 months but have been stuck at the
same weight for the past 4 and I am wondering whether to try the south beach

meals on weekends. I lift weights & run on a regular basis
and I've noticed that after 2 or 3 days of nearly no carbs,

I am so exceedingly unpopular with my students that they made me be the
junior class sponsor this year. The junior class is responsible for putting
on the prom each year. As their sponsor I have to be there. After the king

To those of you who might have wondered why I fell off the newsgroup
